Spring is passing and summer is coming.
For some reason, it rains a lot this time of year!
The raindrops are pattering, the raindrops are not big but very dense, as dense as a bead curtain.
Along with the pouring rain, a layer of thick fog appeared on the offshore sea surface, and the visibility was only about 20 feet.
It rained intermittently for four or five days, and the clouds and mist near the coast made it look like a fairyland on earth. When sailing on the sea, even if they are only twenty feet apart, they can no longer see each other.
The night was lonely and filled with thick fog.
A fleet of fifty huge warships rushed along the coast, traveling quickly and stealthily.
The largest of these fifty large ships is 148 meters long and 60 meters wide. There are only a few warships of this level in the entire world. They are first-class warships, and this warship is also Yanbeishui. The division's flagship.
Although the remaining warships cannot reach this size, and even the smallest length and width are only half of this flagship, they are still a giant in the sea.
Dacan warships can generally be divided into three types: large, medium and small. The large ones are the main warships, called "ships" or "building ships", with 2, 3, 4, or even more than 4 decks. The medium-sized ones are warships used for attack and pursuit, such as "Mengchong", "Xianden", etc. Small ones are fast boats used for sentinel patrols, such as "yachts" and "red horse boats".
In the Yanbei Navy, although there are also medium-sized warships and small warships, only a very small number of them are installed. The most important ones are large warships, which are the most important warships of the Yanbei Navy.
The reason why this situation occurs depends on the historical reasons for the formation of the Yanbei Navy.
The Yanbei Navy was established mainly to defend Dongyi, not for Da Cang. Medium-sized warships and small warships simply cannot withstand the wind and waves at sea. These warships are obviously used on inland rivers. If the Yanbei Navy only deals with Dongyi, they will not be used at all.
Unless the Yanbei Navy wants to deal with Da Cang, it can use these small and medium-sized warships. It is precisely because of this that the Yanbei Navy has only assembled a small number of small and medium-sized warships, and there are very few of them. part.
In comparison, the Donghai Navy, which has now become history, is relatively complete in all aspects. After all, this navy is the biological son of the imperial court, and all aspects of the configuration are scientific and perfect.
It's a pity that as their own sons, they were deeply infiltrated by Tianshi Dao at that time. With the help of several internal agents, most of the fire warships were lost. No matter how good the navy was, their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced after they landed ashore. As for this huge force, it disappeared into the sea of people in Tianshi Dao.
On top of the flagship, stood a middle-aged man nearly eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a majestic appearance, about forty-two or thirteen years old. He was covered in armor and wore a bright red cloak.
The drizzle and mist had soaked his whole body, but the middle-aged man stood motionless on the bow of the ship, holding a sword in his hand and leading the fleet forward bravely.
"Mo Peng, commander 95, force 58, intelligence 89, politics 72, charm 81."
Yes, he is Mo Peng, the man in charge of thirty thousand Yanbei Navy.
Within the original Zhendong Army, under Wang Chang, Wang Dangzhi, Xiao Dong, and Mo Peng were the first to bear the brunt.
After Wang Yu came to power, the status of Wang Dangzhi and Xiao Dong suffered a certain impact, but only Mo Peng remained stable for the time being.
Although Wang Yu sent Gan Ning to recruit new navy troops, it was not easy to recruit them all in a short period of time. Moreover, it is more troublesome to train a qualified naval soldier than to train a qualified land soldier.
Furthermore, Gan Ning is still more suitable to be a surprise general who leads a small group of soldiers and horses to charge into the battle. This kind of frontal confrontation with soldiers and horses and leading the troops to fight is still not suitable for Gan Ning.
The Battle of Dongyi was such a big battle, and the Zhendong Army inevitably suffered some damage, but it was far from being damaged.
However, can the Zhendong Army take action again at this time?
This may be a bit unrealistic!
The 100,000 Zhendong Army was transformed into the Kwantung Army, and it was still a relatively more elite 100,000 Zhendong Army. If this was the case, the current Zhentong Army would not be suitable to continue waging war in a short period of time.
After all, those 100,000 Kwantung Army cannot be touched lightly! Although the land of Dongyi and Xipingdao was captured, it must be suppressed with heavy troops for a long time.
If these 100,000 Kwantung Army troops are transferred away, let alone Yelu Abaoji and Yelu Defei, even if they are not used, Xipingdao himself will be transformed.
Everyone thought that Wang Yu had just taken over the power of Zhendong, and the Zhendong Army was in such a situation that he would not make a big move in the short term.
However, although Wang Yu is not the kind of person who loves taking risks, he can still be regarded as a person who loves surprises!
The more everyone thinks that he will not make a big move at this time, the more he can catch the opponent off guard in this situation.
The Zhendong Army still seemed to be stable and without any movement, while the Yannan Road Army and the Hebei Road Army had not even completely returned to these two roads at this time.
However, at this time, the Yanbei Navy secretly took action.
Moreover, if it were anyone else, they would probably give priority to dealing with Prince Jing at this time.
However, Wang Yu's actual target for launching troops this time was also beyond everyone's expectations. The target he chose was not King Jing, but King Wei. After all, Prince Jing, who was supported by the remaining forces of Huangfu Mingzhao, had greatly increased his strength at this time.
The person Wang Yu took the lead in dealing with was not King Jing, who had gained influence from the imperial court, but King Wei, who was relatively weak. There was naturally a deeper reason behind this.
Wang Yu made such a decision, of course, not because of a headache, but because he made detailed considerations and fully considered the opinions of many counselors under his command.
First of all, although King Jing's strength has greatly increased now, Wang Yu, who has obtained the power of Zhendong, is still slightly ahead of him. No matter how much the General Zhennan Mansion is only nominally linked to Prince Jing, it would be a bit of a joke to say how far the General Zhennan Mansion is willing to risk its life for Prince Jing!
To take a step back, Daqian troops and horses were heavily stationed in the border areas, and the Zhennan Army did not dare to move at all.
Furthermore, Prince Jing had many enemies, and Prince Jing was definitely happy for Wang Yu to pick one up for him, and the one Wang Yu picked up was his brother, King Wei.
Among the many forces, in King Jing's opinion, King Wei may be the one that poses the greatest threat to him. It's not because King Wei is strong, but purely because of his bloodline.
